Materials and GSM Specifications for Kraft Macaron Packaging
The right material is everything when it comes to food-safe, sturdy macaron packaging. Custom kraft macaron boxes from Teal Packaging are produced using natural kraft board in weight ranges that balance structural integrity with a refined, lightweight feel. Here is a breakdown of the material options available:
- 250 gsm Natural Kraft Board: Ideal for smaller macaron boxes (2 to 4 count), providing a firm structure without excess bulk.
- 300 gsm Natural Kraft Board: The most popular option for standard 6 to 12 count boxes, offering excellent rigidity and a premium tactile quality.
- 350 gsm Kraft Board: Best suited for large gift-style macaron trays or multi-tier presentation boxes where extra strength is required.
All kraft board used in production is unbleached and carries a natural brown tone that serves as a beautiful design canvas. Food-safe interior linings are available on request. Our manufacturing partners print using soy-based inks throughout, which means your branding is rendered with vivid, consistent color without harmful petrochemical residues.
